Happy New Year to All…. Arrived in Las Palmas on the 28^th December and loving to warm weather. Been working hard patching up the yacht and looks like we will be here until at least the 6^th waiting for some parts for the engine. Looks like a dock party for the fiesta tonight, otherwise all is well and I have attached some photos of the trip thus far.
